Seamonster Sounds

Recording, mixing, mastering for creative artists

About Me

Arranging, recording, mixing and mastering for independent artists, theater and film. Situated on a bluff in Malibu (10 minutes from Santa Monica), Seamonster has three recording spaces, a variety of digital and analog gear and instruments, and a rustic, creative vibe.

Head seamonster Hoagie Hill is experienced in a wide variety of genres. Clients and collaborators range from neophytes to superstars; what they have in common is a taste for the unusual and the desire to work with an engineer/producer who can relate to their artistic vision.

Our rates are low, tailored to your "starving artist" budget; typically they're set on a per-project basis so you don't have to watch the clock. Step up from your bedroom studio without having to break your piggy bank for a full-on commercial factory.

Please contact by phone or email (through our website). We don't hang around here much, 'cause you can't really call it myspace unless your name is Rupert Murdoch.
